Before I buy a Smartphone or iPhone I want to know if more people own a smartphone than iPhone or the other way round.As I want to play online games and I was looking at ratings of games.

With S. Jobs, iPhone was winning, but now Apple is going down... And Android is going up!

I had several Iphones in the Jobs "era" and they were utter crap in my opinion. I haven't looked back since I switched to Android.

The iPhone is for people who aren't into computers for computer's sake, but are into computers for productivity. The Android is for people who are into computers for the sake of experimenting with computers.
The iPhone is for people who want quality apps that do things useful in a wide variety of niche applications. The Android is for people who want junky apps that aren't polished, but they can point to the app and say: "Look, we have an app too, and we don't have to abide by Apple's rules."
For the record, I have an Android.

iPhone apps are not inherently higher quality than Android apps.

I would say at this point Android is winning, however that doesn't necessarily mean that an Android phone is for you. I am an avid Android user and love my Nexus 4, though many of my friends prefer the look and feel of iOS. Really just comes down to personal choice. AFAIK Apple does not allow Bitcoin apps in their appstore so that may make a difference

Android is a bunch of slow java shit with complicated user interface. Oh, and it reboots for no reason every now and then. I'm not a fan of iPhone either but of these two, iPhone all the way.

My Android never rebooted alone. Did you try any Android 3.0+?

Have you had much experience with newer Android phones? Since they updated to 4.2 the UI is super smooth

The most important thing for me is not the brand, but whether it is jailbroken or not. Until you unlock your phone you don't really own it.

What I don't understand is why cell phone companies feel an absolute desire to completely or partially control what it is you do with the device you paid good money for. There seems to be no phones coming out today which are completely open, especially considering Android which has no vanilla, but some tricked-up bloatware-infested version of it on whatever brand it's being sold by. I was eyeballing the Nexus recently, which supposedly is supposed to run the purest form of Android of all smartphones, but not even it is safe from Google branding, and there's certain Google-influenced features you simply cannot get rid of (without rooting, I suppose.) One would figure there would be a market for this kind of thing, but I can't seem to find these fabled smartphones with clean OSes out of the box.

Iphone = device
Android = operating system
If you are indeed choosing between 2 devices, at least name them. There are 80$ android tablets and 1000$ android tablets.
